Linkspam!

It's time for some more linkspam!

The Estonian government (or at least part of it) is looking to get on the blockchain currency bandwagon. Lots of people and organisations have talked about launching their own blockchain currency so why is this a big deal? Well it would be both the first back by a nation state and the first 'new' currency launched by a euro-zone member. And the latter certainly would be a big deal.

The Atlantic has an interesting little piece on people interacting with their own removed organs.

And they also have another on Waymo/Google's self driving car efforts. I should probably write some more about that later on.
